Sweet Beauty

Chapter 983: A Housekeeper?

The neighbor almost rolled her eyes. "A woman! A real woman! My phone's pixels aren't good, so you guys might not be able to see her clearly. The little girl is gentle and easy on the eyes. She's so lively!"         

    

"Aiyo, this is big news! I will pass this news on to my other friends!"     

Zhang Xiuying and her family were out grocery shopping, but the news of Han Cihui's marriage had already spread like wildfire in some circles.     

At the supermarket, Han Cihui also bought new towels, toothbrushes, and slippers for Jia Qiulian.     

Fearing that Jia Qiulian would not like his choices, Han Cihui specifically allowed her to choose her own items.     

Zhang Xiuying saw the two of them being so lovey-dovey and felt very happy in her heart.     

When she got home, she rolled up her sleeves and was about to enter the kitchen when Jia Qiulian immediately took the grocery bags and followed her.     

Zhang Xiuying stopped her. "You sit here and watch TV. The food will be prepared soon."     

Jia Qiulian quickly said, "I want to help you. Cooking alone is very tiring and very troublesome. I can help you wash the dishes. I also know how to cook. You can try my cooking skills."     

Han Cihui smiled and said, "I have never eaten Lianlian's cooking. Mom, don't stop her. Let Lianlian cook two dishes, and I'll help you wash the vegetables."     

Zhang Xiuying smiled and nodded. "Since you already said so, then let's do it together."     

She didn't expect it.     

The young master would actually enter the kitchen one day.     

Zhang Xiuying sighed deeply. The power of love was very powerful. It could actually change a person thoroughly!     

After lunch, the three of them went to rest. After all, they had been on the plane for so long, and the jet lag wasn't going away. No matter how excited they were, they were exhausted at this point.     

Zhang Xiuying arranged Jia Qiulian's room next to Han Cihui's. Originally, she wanted them to sleep together, but Han Cihui insisted that they would not sleep together until they received the certificate. Therefore, Zhang Xiuying arranged it that way.     

After a short nap, Jia Qiulian woke up hungry at six in the afternoon.     

She got up and cleaned herself up. When she came out, she found that Han Cihui and Zhang Xiuying hadn't yet woken up.     

So she quietly went downstairs and then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.     

In the two years after her parents' death, Jia Qiulian lived a very poor life. Everything was done by herself, so it was not surprising that she was an expert in house chores     

Jia Qiulian had been working in the kitchen for an hour and there were already five dishes on the table. There was still the soup in the pot, which she hadn't taken. She first prepared a bowl and a ladle to ladle the soup.     

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from outside. The black shadow came in forcefully. Seeing the food on the table and smelling the aroma of the food, his stomach suddenly growled several times.     

Very hungry...     

Jia Qiulian just happened to be on her way to the dining room. Holding the big hot bowl with both hands, she carefully walked out of the kitchen.     

Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw someone standing there. She was very surprised and reflexively shouted, "Ah!"     

Han Xiwang was also surprised. He took a step back and looked at Jia Qiulian warily.         

    

Their gazes met. It was a little awkward.     

Jia Qiulian did not recognize Han Xiwang and vice versa. The bowl in her hand suddenly became so hot that her fingers hurt. She quickly walked over and placed the bowl on the table. She blew into her hands and breathed heavily.     

"Who are you?"     

They both asked at the same time.     

Jia Qiulian saw that the other party was quite old and a senior, so she quickly opened her mouth and said, "My name is Jia Qiulian. I... I am Han Cihui's girlfriend. Uncle, may I ask who you are..."     

"Oh, me!" Han Xiwang coughed and his eyes widened before he said seriously, "I am this family's housekeeper. I came here to check the hygiene routine."     

"So you are Uncle Butler!" Jia Qiulian laughed without a care in the world. "Han Cihui and auntie are still asleep. I made dinner and was just about to call them down to eat."     

"You don't need to call them down." Han Xiwang's eyes carefully scrutinized Jia Qiulian. "Cihui and Xiuying... No, I mean, the young master and madam do not like to be disturbed in their sleep. If you go upstairs and wake them up now, they will definitely lose their temper."     

Cihui and Xiuying?     

Jia Qiulian's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the man in front of her carefully. This slip of the tongue made her understand something.     

When she looked at the man's clothes, the suit was straight and looked very expensive. Moreover, this man didn't radiate a respectful aura toward the master of the house. Especially when he mentioned Han Cihui and Zhang Xiuying. His tone was so natural that it was obvious who exactly he was.     

Jia Qiulian nodded with a smile. "Oh, okay! Then... Uncle, are you hungry? Do you want to eat with me?"     

Hungry!     

Han Xiwang was very hungry. Now he began to regret it.     

He had just told her that he was a housekeeper. If he sat down and ate with her now, wouldn't his lies be exposed?     

He suppressed his hunger and pretended to be reserved. "That's not good, is it? You can eat by yourself."     

"It's fine!" Jia Qiulian walked over and lightly grabbed Han Xiwang's arm. She pulled him to the table and then pushed him onto the seat. She casually said, "It's fine. Sit down and eat with me. There's a lot of food here. They didn't wake up, I can't finish it all by myself."     

Han Xiwang was very happy in his heart. He looked at the table full of dishes and almost drooled.     

However, he still showed a serious expression. "Then... with great reluctance, I will accompany you to eat."     

Jia Qiulian went back to her seat and served Han Xiwang a bowl of rice first. After politely handing it to him, she then filled her own bowl and sat down to eat with him.     

The five dishes on the table were homemade dishes, pickled and seasoned potato strips, and green pepper minced pork stir-fry. Sauteed broccoli, braised pork ribs, and steamed fish. The soup was a regular tomato and egg soup.     

Han Xiwang first took the potato filling and put it in his mouth. As soon as it entered his mouth, the spiciness immediately assaulted him. Together with the slightly sour taste, this food was actually very appetizing. He secretly looked at Jia Qiulian and thought, "The food this little girl cooked was not bad."     

Jia Qiulian noticed Han Xiwang was looking at her, so she asked with a smile. "Uncle, is the food delicious?"     

Han Xiwang nodded without batting an eyelid. "It's okay. Compared to our family chef's cooking, it's still a little lacking."     

"Hehe..." Jia Qiulian just smiled and did not say anything else.         

    

Although this was her first time eating with Han Xiwang, she did not feel uncomfortable at all.     

Han Xiwang felt that his cover had not been blown yet. As he ate, he pretended to be casual. "Does your family know you are here?"
